Abstract

A packaging apparatus is provided for holding a sterile product. In one aspect, a secondary packaging holder is configured with a base and a receiving portion to receive and irreversibly hold a primary packaging holder. The secondary packaging holder can have a substantially planar wall configured to affix an identifying label thereto. The secondary packaging holder can be configured to snap fit to a neck of the primary packaging holder to hold the primary packaging holder such that a portion of the primary packaging holder is exposed outside of the secondary packaging holder based on a height relationship between the secondary packaging holder and the primary packaging holder.
